I can't seem to do good with my life,
or to be who I'm supposed to be.
I try something new to be cut down with a knife,
nothing I do is good enough for you it seems.
I tried to make something happen that's good,
but I'm cursed and it will never end.
I'm drowning in sorrow I guess I should,
because to you you think I don't bend.
This grief should soon end as I try my best,
to keep my family happy and fed.
In your eyes I don't try like all the rest,
like I would rather lie in my bed.
Maybe someday you will see my real side,
the side I cannot ever mend back to "sane".
I am who I am and I stated it, not hide,
the problems in which I try so hard to tame.
